Animal Friends is pleased to
offer an alternative adoption option: the Home-to-Home placement program (H2H). The
H2H placement program was designed for those individuals and families who,
finding it necessary to give up their beloved pets for adoption, want to take a
more active role in the adoption process.

Under H2H, owners have the benefit of meeting,
screening and making adoption decisions. Potential adopters have the benefit of
one-on-one interactions with the current owners in order to obtain firsthand
information about the animal’s likes, dislikes and other characteristics. The
H2H placement program also allows Animal Friends to help more animals in the
community, even when our kennels are full. At its very core, this program helps
bring together owners and adopters, on their own terms, in their own
communities.

The following animals are living in homes while
their owners search for permanent families for these pets. We encourage you to
consider these pets while you look for your new companion animal. If any of them
seem like a perfect match, please contact the current owners, who are
identified with each featured pet. For even more adoptable pets, visit www.ThinkingOutsideTheCage.org/HomeToHome.

Sophie

Sophie
is about 2 years old. She is playful and friendly and knows lots of tricks like
sit, stay, shake hands, and lie down. She loves kids and running in the yard
playing ball. She could easily be trained to go off-leash because she likes to
be with people. She enjoys car rides and playing with other dogs. Sophie
deserves a loving home with a family who will love her like we do. If you
can help Sophie find a forever home, contact Herman at 412-833-3729 or 412-862-7806.

Bella
is a beautiful, 5-year-old, long-haired tabby. She is gentle and affectionate
with adults, and enjoys being brushed and combed. She loves to toss her toys
into the air, then rest in a sunny window. Bella has one very important
request: no other pets or young
children, please! In quiet surroundings, with her beauty and sweetness, Bella
promises to make her forever home a happy home. If you can help Bella find a forever home, please contact Mary at 412-885-4501
